Beautiful Maison De Maitre with Stunning Chateau Views

Property Description

Summary
Priced to sell our beautiful house enjoys a privileged position overlooking the fifteenth century Renaissance chateau which is literally at the bottom of the garden! It's in a beautiful spot and is very quiet. Most of the rooms have just been painted and mains drainage connection is in progress.

The view from the south facing terrace is stunning and from the first floor you can see miles of forests and countryside. The house is full of character, there are loads of original features, it's got tonnes of storage and outbuildings and the rooms are huge.

The chateau itself is not habited. It houses the Mairie’s office and the tiny village post office.

Location
Countryside walks are on your doorstep and it's a ten minute drive to Rouillac with its weekly market and all the usual amenities (supermarkets, banks, doctors, boulangerie, tabac, bars, restaurants etc). Cognac is less than half an hour away with all its sophisticated shops, restaurants and bars. The west coast of France is around 1.5 hours away where you'll find cosmopolitan seaside towns and stunning beaches.

Access
The nearest airport is La Rochelle (an hour a fifteen minutes) and Limoges, Poitiers and Bordeaux airports are all around 1.5 hours away. Angouleme is a thirty minute drive which has access to the N10 motorway as well as TGV connections to Paris and Bordeaux. The house is within a five hour drive of both Caen and Roscoff ferry ports and it is around seven hours from Calais.

The shower room is downstairs and upstairs there's only a wc, sink and bidet. The house would therefore benefit from an upstairs bathroom

Exterior
The south facing terrace overlooks the chateau. There is a lawned garden area and a very long driveway, the bottom part of which could house three cars. There is also loads of parking in front of the house as the village is very small and very quiet.

The house offers an immense amount of additional space which could be used for a number of different opportunities. There is a barn ( 62 square metres with the same amount of space on the upper floor), an additional storage room at the far end of the barn and a garage of 104 square metres. At the end of the garage is a sliding door which takes you onto a viewing platform/small garden area with magnificent views of the chateau and the countryside beyond. The garage could easily accommodate eight cars, perfect for the classic car enthusiast! There is also a huge workshop of over 100 square metres.
